Siddhartha Festival Opening: Audiovisual Walk

An audiovisual walk based on Hermann Hesse's novella. Visitors will put on headphones and walk through twelve stations corresponding to the twelve chapters of Hesse's Indian poem - the journey of the Brahmin's son Siddhartha, a hero seeking truth and the meaning of life, narrated by Daniel Krejčík.

Each person can choose their own pilgrimage: to free themselves from thirst, desire and suffering, to learn Buddha's teachings, to plunge into samsara, or to wade through countless errors and begin anew. Through love and self-knowledge - that indestructible essence that each of us carries within.
